It all started with a young man named Roger Wood…

Roger Wood

Roger Wood returned home to Savannah, GA from military service during World War I in 1920. He joined the Cudahy Packing Company and quickly worked his way up to local manager of the Savannah branch.

Driven by his entrepreneurial spirit, Wood along with others decided to form their own meat packing company in 1936 and called it Wood-Robbins Sausage.

World War II interrupted Roger Wood’s first endeavor temporarily. After the war, Wood restarted the company’s operations as sole owner and named it Roger Wood Packing Company.

Shortly following, his son-in-law, Joseph M. Solana Jr., joined him in the business and began to build its progressing legacy in the Southeast.

Making Bologna 50’s Style

In the late 70’s Solana’s sons came into the family business and still operate the company in Savannah, Georgia.
